Flip UltraHD camcorder model released
on May 3, 2009
Pure Digital announced the availability of its newest line of Flip Video cameras, the Flip Ultra and Flip UltraHD models. The HD model records at 1280 x 720 video resolution, and outputs widescreen format via HDMI interface. Both cameras record up to 2 hours of video, using the 4GB built-in memory (standard definition) or 8GB built-in memory (high definition model).
A bright 2-inch transflective viewing screen helps with reflections when using in the bright sun. The rechargeable battery pack uses AA batteries which can be charged via USB connection. The new camcorders are pre-loaded with FlipShare, the software that allows editing, organizing and sharing of video content.

these are actually cheaper than the Flip MinoHD, which is supposed to be a lot lighter at 3.3 ounce but hard to find weight on Ultra models
portability is the only thing you win with this camera. digital zoom terrible, as with most consumer level cameras. but cool to carry around.
